Hollenbeck Park

Hollenbeck Park is located on the corner of Saint Louis and Fourth Streets in Boyle Heights, Los Angeles, California. Some of the Park's features include a lake, picinic areas and even a skateboard park.

Hollenbeck Park has been a lush oasis in the neighborhood since 1892. The park was named for John Edward Hollenbeck (1829 - 1885), founder of First National Bank, whose widow, along with former L.A. Mayor William Workman, donated 21 acres (85,000 m²) of land. With green and rolling hills, towering palms and a man-made lake, it is one of the most beautiful spots on the East Side. In the 1950s, the Golden State Freeway was built against its western boundary.
